Great movie with a great cast of actors that would later become better known to us.
I remember the eating of the hard boiled eggs, and Clifton James’s spiel of “gets a night in the box”.
Have never seen Hud. I love his performance in The Hustler.
Kino Lorber recently released Nobody’s Fool in UHD. Waiting for it to arrive. Fantastic film.
Right- I remember Wayne Rogers in it. Is Dennis Hopper one of the inmates, or am I mistaken?
I don’t know about that, but his performance in Hud was special too.
I think Newman had many special performances. I agree that Hud was certainly one, too. And there was Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid, The Hustler, etc., etc. I could go on and on. Trying to pick "the best" is difficult and highly subjective. The man was terrific in so many good movies.
Wow- I forgot that Waite and Stanton were in it.
This is Warner we’re talking about! They're not going to do a half-ass effort to celebrate their 100th anniversary. Those Blu-rays were released 12-15 years ago so they have little choice, but to do new 4K scans from OCN's or the best surviving film elements.
Cool Hand Luke is an excellent movie. George Kennedy was great in this as is Newman of course. So many other good performances. Some iconic moments like Strother Martin's failure to communicate speech, the car wash and of course Newman's egg eating contest. Newman has played so many great roles but this and ,as mentioned by Robert Crawford, John Russell in Hombre are my favorites. My sister was an usher at our local theatre when Hombre was released and i could get in for free. I must have seen Hombre about 20 times.
